"Press Club in Dupont Circle, from the beverage director of Bresca and Jônt, offers two menus—the seasonal Play List, and the a la carte Track List, featuring tempura dishes, katsu sandos, and fried chicken karaage, as well as a lengthy cocktail menu." - omnia saed
"A vinyl-obsessed bar collaborating with head bartender Tsune Imada for a special night of IWA Sake-based cocktails, including a cocktail flight paired with bites from chef Ryan Ratino." - Emily Venezky
"A pair of East Coast mixology masterminds gifted Dupont a subterranean cocktail den with a knack for throwback tracks. The hot new bar that dropped in December is a collaboration between Will Patton — the beverage director behind D.C.’s Michelin-starred duo Bresca and Jônt — and Devin Kennedy, a NYC bar vet most recently in charge of East Village’s hip hangout Pouring Ribbons. Cocktails served on mini vinyl coasters include a French Waltz with green Chartreuse, pisco, riesling, and lime. Taking tips from A and B sides of an album, Press Club will offer two congruent menus at once. Food is also fabulous here, from beer-soaked nuts to chicken karaage served in crystal plateware." - Emily Venezky
